    There are actually 9 eras. From oldest to youngest, they are the following:

    Early Archean

    Middle Archean

    Late Archean

    Early Proterozoic

    Middle Proterozoic

    Late Proterozoic

    Paleozoic

    Mesozoic

    Cenozoic

    The last three only account for about 12% of Earth history.

    There is actually an earlier era than the Early Archean, but it has not been officially named because there are no examples of the rock from that era.
